How to transfer FSMO roles
Hello:
I am preparing to transfer the FSMO Roles from 1 Windows Domain Controller to another DC. I have reviewed the process from the following web site: https://www.petri.com/seizing_fsmo_roles ... and I have created more specific instructions for my network (Attached).
I unfortunately do not have a test Lab or Test Domain to practice with on and I have not transferred roles in a very long time. Hence, I wanted to verify the steps involved. I created a similar question earlier
( https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28977018/How-to-swap-out-existing-domain-controllers-with-2-new-domain-Controllers.html ) ; but this is a little different and specifically focused on transferring the FSMO roles.
I am particularly concerned with the process to "To Transfer the Schema Master Role:" section (page 5, #8). Even though I received a warning I think I should be able to transfer the Schema Master Role, as documented. Or am I wrong and I should go about it a different way?
I wanted to ask other Network Administrators who may have done this before. Just to put my mind at ease.
